Looking for a new in sump return pump as mine is quite noisy, ive been hearing eheim is pretty decent?
 
In the past few years, I've tried eheim 1262, tunze 1070.04, and ocean runner 2500, 3500, and 6500 as return pumps. All of them were pretty quiet except for the ocean runner 6500. The 6500 had a slight hum to it, but it's a big pump though so I would consider it fairly quiet for it's size.
 
Eheim, Ocean Runner and now WaterBlaster are my choices, I love the WaterBlaster HY series that replaced the other two I had before.
